Another idea, i would like to share here. Instead routing the cable through the default route we can route it through front brake hose route in the top and the rest as before. Then the cable seems less strained and cockpit looks neat. Regards
I have recently installed 45mm risers on my 390 adventure 2022. Here are a few tips: - I could not get the clutch cable fit into the black lever near the engine (in video done at 20:10) no matter what I did (it seemed to not be long enough). First thing I did was putting both nuts to the rear side of the black bracket through which you guide the cable (in video done at 16:56). This worked but after few rides, the clutch lever on handlebar was too loose and needed adjusting (which was not possible since both nuts are on the same side). *THE ABSOLUTE BEST* way to install the clutch cable near the engine is to simple unscrew the black guide metal thing that you need to lead the cable through (in video at 16:56), put it through, put the end of the clutch cable into the little hook lever at the engine and then screw the black guide back in. This way the whole installation was very easy, no bending of the cable and I can have the nuts on clutch cable on both sides. - I bought Rox Speed FX risers, which add extra 44.5mm. I did not need to extend the brake cable, however it is at its limit when steering all the way to the left so anything more than 45mm would need brake lever extender as well. If you plan on buying this riser, you will need to buy two bolts so you can install it, the included two screws are unusable as you cannot get to them.
Thanks for this video, I did add 30mm bar risers then followed this video to easily replace the clutch cable. I used a Royal Enfield Himalayan cable. I did keep the 2 lock nuts on the right side of the bracket finding it to fit pretty well. The Canadian 5 cent nickel works well to measure the free play.
Great video and detail as always! I just followed this install and this guide was amazingly helpful. The bar risers have made an incredible difference, can't believe I didn't do them as one of the first upgrades now I see the difference, ergonomics are transformed. Worth noting, I got the same clutch cable from the German company you did, Voigt, and mine came with a heat shield pre-installed, so I guess they've made an improvement (maybe they saw your video). Also the same company do 390A-specific bar risers, 30mm that also pull the bars from memory 18mm closer to you, and I would recommend if others are watching this and getting the cable from that company. For me (just over 6 foot) riding position now feels perfect sitting, and almost perfect standing (still on OEM pegs, replacing should make standing position perfect if I get pegs a bit lower). Oh also, I did actually put both nuts on the same side as per OEM cable and didn't find issues with getting clutch lever play correct (that I can detect, seems perfect after adjusting, but not sure if there is a specific issue to watch for?). I tried one nut on each side but couldn't easily access the nut nearest engine that way to tighten it up, so tried OEM config and all seems good with the two together - not sure if there is some other revision from the company that makes this possible now, or if I've done something wrong without realising it, but I did check carefully all is secure and free play is consistent while steering.
Nice, glad it all worked out and you found it useful. It’s possible they upgraded the cable? In any case, sounds like it fits even better now. I’ve actually added quite a bit to my linkage since this video. Check out my one finger clutch/pro spec easy clutch video. Unbelievably smooth lever action.
@@advinjapan Thanks dude. Yeah I think they have upgraded it, maybe with the twin nuts that work side-by-side as well as the heat shield. Almost feels like they saw your video and made improvements based on. I'll check those out, thanks for mentioning! - clutch action could be smoother for sure
Could you please provide the total length of the clutch cable? I need to buy a replacement due to the 30mm raiders I installed, but I cannot find one without knowing the total length. Thanks
Hey Don, I’m not sure of the length but my bar risers are also 30mm. You can use the link in my profile and purchase that cable, or I have heard that the Royal Enfield Himalayan clutch cable also works. Good luck!
Well explained, thank you for that. I am about to put on 50mm riser and I was wondering if I am going to need some sort of extension for my brake cable. With your riser on, do you think there is enough extra room even for this kind of rise or am I going to need to extend the brake cable as well?
Thanks Riko, you might be alright with the break cable. I’ve seen people with risers and fork extenders and still the brake cable was long enough, it’s really just the clutch cable you’ll need to worry about.
Didn't read the other comments, but i interpret the info on the website the cable is for MY 19- (present), not referring to the actual lenght of the cable.
Hopefully you pass inspection! We have bike inspections in New York, however, the clutch cable is not on them. (Brake cables are!) I was fortunate that since I had changed my bars to ProTapers, I did need a new cable. I bought one, so it's still sealed for when the OEM is looking a little more worse for wear. - Frank
Nice Vid...........the word issues were pretty funny. I put the fork extenders on my bike to get a bit more ground clearance and a better glide angle for the skid plate. I was able to pull that off without having to change the clutch cable though it is pretty tight now. I would love to put 1 in bar risers on but I will have problems with the brake line and the wiring to the to throttle and left side control unit........sigh. I guess I will just have to put up with a bit of an akward standing position. Probably something I will adjust to over time.
Thanks Doug! Yeah, the words, heh, I’ve been here way too long🤪. I’ve seen those extenders, thought about it myself, but I’m afraid I’m not tall enough. That’s a bummer on the break cable. Though I’m sure there’s a fix out there somewhere. I’d get that clutch cable done though, don’t want to ruin your clutch plates, that’s an expensive fix. Cheers!
Hey Joe, I’m assuming you’re referring to measuring the clutch play at the actual clutch lever, right? While it is the most accurate way to measure clutch play, it certainly isn’t the only way to do it. Thanks for the heads up! 👍

you may use your adjustable spanners to pull the cluth while fixing the cable tip in there. with hands I found it a little tougher
Great idea! Thanks!

I re used the stock “nuts” and adjustment seems to work.Still need a good to test ride to confirm
Thanks for the video
Sure! Thank you! Glad it worked out👍
Does replacing only clutch cable work for rising handlebar or is it needed gas cable or another cable to be replaced too?
A bar rise over 8cm may require a new brake cable.
Super helpful. Getting ready to swap out my cable along with some Rox Risers hopefully this weekend. I know what to expect now. Thank you!
Thanks for watching, and I’m glad you found it helpful. Rox Riser, I’ll have to check those out. American company?
@@advinjapan yeah. Made in USA. They’re a 44.5mm or 1 3/4” pivoting riser.
I just looked them up, those look pretty awesome. Good luck with the install!
Was fixing bar risers n got stuck with cable. Thx for the info. Was very helpful. Don’t know why makers are not rectifying still..
Glad to hear my video was helpful 🙏

Which risers did you get?
Is this Himalayan 411 cable or Himalayan 452?
Hey Ravi, check the description. This is from a German company. It’s especially made for the 390.
@@advinjapan thank! Your videos and diy are good, keep up the good work and enjoy Japan!
Sorry to bother, but how long is the std clutch cable for ktm adv.390 ?
No bother at all. I am not positive, but I think it’s 100cm long. The cable I install here is 110cm, much longer.
@@advinjapan just installed the new cable..royal enfield . Your video was the light . Great job you 👍..
@@neillkriehn9002 thanks a lot! Glad it all worked out 🤟🏻
Which sleeve we can use?
Hey thanks, what do you mean by sleeve?
Didn't read the other comments, but i interpret the info on the website the cable is for MY 19- (present), not referring to the actual lenght of the cable.
I wanna say it’s 110cm long but I could be wrong.

Good to know Frank. I wonder if it’s the same here. Makes sense about the brake cable.
Very nicely done. Thank you.
Thank you Alex!
19 inch for the longer one?
Not sure what you’re asking here
@@advinjapan was just wanting the length for both clutch wires. Thanks
@allentig yes, I believe that’s what the product description says. You can have a look at their website. Link in the description.
@@advinjapan i looked, nobody shows length on these websites. You said 19 inches but was sure which one your were talking about
@@advinjapan its all good man, i got one ordered now. Thanks. I appreciate all your videos

A shot of WD-40 down the protective sleeve might help reduce the friction.
Appreciate that advice!

Just did this on my 390 and my cable had all the sheathing on the KTM one did. Mine was a OEM one.
Nice, glad that worked out👍
You measured the clutch lever play in a wrong spot.
